I got q300 dual 70mm + berk HFC 70mm. Had it installed in my car for about 2 months now. Loving every bit of it Now one thing that bothers me a little bit is when under partial throttle right at 3k during acceleration it drones. But once you pass 3k drone is completely gone. It's got stock like idle, not too loud when light on gas, but be ware of orgasm when you punch it
Hahaha I see. Well, what worries me is exactly what you refer to as "orgasm". I don't want the police to hear me coming (lol pun intended)from too far out. What RPM does it get loud at you think? Also how loud is it when your on the freeway doing normal speeds (70-75mph)
70mph is about 1 to 2 bar below 4k rpm(ap2), which is the speed i travel in everyday, and its not loud. once you pass 3k it quiets down significantly, its loud ~3k rpm.

Thanks. So all and all I'm getting the vibe that its a bearable exhaust, that it wont be a complete cop magnet if I drive it smart. That is good news. Now if only I could find out how differently it behaves when its matted to a Gernpipe I would be set (:

With a test pipe it's insane loud (for the 70mm exhaust). You can't play that down, anyone with ears will hear you coming. It can easily deafen people with their windows down as you get on it next to them. Personally I'm not too crazy about how raspy and shitty it sounds with a test pipe, at least for driving it around. At the track it's pretty awesome though.

For just cruising it's very quiet and tame, not annoying at all. If you accelerate lightly, you can keep it quiet enough for a cop to look the other way. It would be more the car attracting the attention than the exhaust.

This. The rasp can be quite annoying.

Dont want cops to hear you ???...ever hit Vtec ?? ...The S driven right is loud period. Add a Q300 now you have really loud when you want it to be and quite as almost stock when needed ...I have a q300 with a HFC and it sounds great !!!!! do it you wont be sorry unless you don't like the sound of exhaust @ wot ...love my q300 , so much better then havin an oem exhaust imo.
